New Delhi:
Congress leader Jairam Ramesh is addressing a press conference to take on the Modi government in the Lalit Modi row. Here are the highlights:
- The PM is silent on Lalit Modi issue
- It is clear that Vasundhara Raje-Lalit Modi are business partners
- In 2013 affidavit had acknowledged this
- There is no doubt in this
- In 15 days, finally Raje accepted that she had accepted that the signatures were hers
- We want to tell our PM 'Swami Maunendra' (silent swami) that Vasundhara Raje and Lalit Modi converted government property into personal assets
- Modi government can't run away from reality
- Vasundhara Raje's husband, Dushyant's father in a statement in court in 1980 said that the Dholpur Palace wasn't personal property, it belonged to the government.
- Up until 2010 Dholpur Mahal was declared government property 6 times, starting from 1954. In 2013, Vasundhara Raje said that Lalit Modi has 815 shares.
- We will put these documents in front of the people of this country
- Iske baad agar Maunendra Dhritarahstra banna chahtey hain toh unki marzi hai
- It is not a question of if Vasundhara Raje will quit as Rajasthan chief minister, but when and how?
- Based on these documents, it is imperative for Vasundhara Raje to quit as chief minister
- Despite Dholpur City Palace being governmental property, Vasundhara Raje and Lalit Modi proceeded to convert it into a high-end private luxury hotel.
- This is the fourth episode in the serial of Vasudhara Raje and the fugitive Lalit Modi.
- First episode established Vasudhara Raje and Lalit Modi were business partners.
- Second episode established that Lalit Modi got Rs 21cr from Mauritius and invested in Dushyant Singh's company.
- Third established that Vasundhara Raje signed a 7-page document for UK authorities to help Lalit Modi.
- Fourth: what we are saying today is Vasundhara Raje, Lalit Modi and Niyant has converted Dholpur Palace, a government property into private property.
- Vasundhara Raje, Lalit Modi Showing Government Property as Private, says Congress.
- This is a private-private partnership to manage a public property, without any revenues accruing to the Government of Rajasthan. This is a bizarre PPP.
